SAVE RACHEL'S LIFE
Donation protected
My name is Rachel Rich. I have been diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor, sitting on the brain stem in the back of my neck. This is causing a myriad of complex neurological & physical symptoms such as neuropathy nerve pain (Loss of balance, weakness, numbness, headaches, anxiety, panic attacks, slurred speech, seizures & Ischemia of the brain). When I went to the Mayo Clinic, I was told that because of the cancer’s location and blood supply to the brain it is inoperable and that they will watch it and make me as comfortable as possible until I die.
I’ve established treatment with naturopathic doctors, physical therapists, acupuncturists and a neurosurgeon in Hawaii. I go twice a week to my local neuropathy clinic where I get 4 vitamin injections in each foot, followed by the Sanexas therapy to help heal the nerves.
I’ve been told I’m not eligible for medicare until I am “two years disabled” but the fact is I need treatment NOW to prevent being disabled for LIFE!
My naturopath’s have offered me treatments that Mayo could not. My hope is that these treatments will shrink my tumor & relieve my symptoms. Most of this has not been covered by insurance, this is why the naturopath’s set up this GoFundMe for me. I am unable to afford these treatments alone & without insurance.
Thank you ALL so much for supporting and donating to my GFM anything means the world to me and I appreciate everyone. God Bless
